The Edge

Oh I knew
Though I did not know the reason
Passing through
Just like fireflies in season
Where are you
I just cannot stand the treason
I'll be here
Have you thought of me at all

And I hoped that there'd be something
But time couldn't let us breathe
Why tie ourselves to nothing
The room's not hard to read

Don't you know that
I can't wait here
You've got me hanging on and
Tightrope walk near
The edge of everything and
I can't stay here
And watch it all wash away

On the wall
Hangs the picture that I've taken
And so far, as I've laid it
It is crooked as the nearest politician
In your eyes
I can only sense suspicion
Did we ever really have it
Or were demons lurking just outside of frame

And I wish that there was something
But time couldn't let us breathe
Why tie ourselves to nothing
The room's not hard to read

Can't you see that
I can't wait here
You've got me hanging round and
Tightrope walk near
The edge of everything and
I can't stay here
And watch it all wash away

I carry all your swords
I know that they'll just pierce me dry
But when I see your face
I hit the bottom of my soul
Oh no

Don't you know that
I can't wait here
You've got me hanging on and
Tightrope walk near
The edge of everything and
I can't stay here
And watch it all wash away
Oh

Wash away now
I can't stay here
You've got me hanging on and
Tightrope walk near
The edge of everything and
I can't stay here
And watch it all wash away
No, wash away

No I can't stay here
Watch it all wash away
I can't stay here
The edge of everything and I
